PHOTO HUNT - SAD

This week's photo hunt theme is sad. This picture represents sad to me because it is my beloved Abby, who passed away a week after this picture was taken, which will be 2 years this coming February. Abby was a very sweet Westie, and we miss her dearly. When she was 9 or 10, she developed pulmonary fibrosis, then in the last months of her life, lymphoma. When I look at this photo, although she just looks like a puppy to me, I can see that she just looks tired. She was a trooper until the end. Sad...losing a pet who is a member of your family.

I'm certain she had a wonderful life with you and your family. She does look sad and you can sense something is wrong. I'm sure those were very difficult days for you. You must have so many warm memories of her presence in your life. These small little pets are so much more than pets. They are family members. A good choice for "sad".
